Dial Up. Yeah I know the sound and I know the time it took to load anything with. But it’s something I won’t ever miss having. I would much rather be on a 1MB connection if I had to choose between that or dial up ever again. I also hated how easy it was to be kicked off, if anyone called the phone, you were off it in seconds.

    I still have them, and a player (Nakamishi 700 ZXL), and a Revox B77 with reels. I don’t have functioning 8-tracks anymore. I have the tapes and equipment, but the tapes all broke. I need to find way to fix them (restore the loop).

    There’s to much music lost just because the medium isn’t available anymore and it wasn’t economicaly viable to transfer it to a newer medium. So many records that didn’t get transferred to CD.
